It's Glacage, and yes you have the ingredients right.
Below is a recipe and method from Gisslens professional cooking. This is from the cd that accompanies the book.


Chocolate Glacage

1 lb 3 oz Water
2 ½ oz Granulated Sugar
9 ½ oz Cocoa Powder
14 oz Heavy Cream
14 pc Platinum Gelatine Sheets


Chocolate Glacage.






 Combine water, sugar, cocoa powder and heavy cream in a heavy gauge pot.
 Meanwhile, bloom gelatin in ice water and set aside.
 Bring mixture to low boil and whisk until a reduction occurs. (The mixture should become slightly sticky when ready).
 Remove from heat, squeeze gelatin and add in mixture.
 Cool and glaze at 80-88 F (30 C).
